Popping on here to say....

This week, and super strong today
Experiencing massive Upgrades
 
Light Body Vehicle
MERKABA
 
MER   -    light
 
KA      -    spirit
 
BA      -    body
 
Lightbody  - “is a gridwork of light and sacred geometry that brings together your physical, emotional, mental and spiritual being. This body radiates light energy and electromagnetically links your multidimensional self with the infinite universe. It connects you to your encoded data through high electrical currents that assist you in translating and manifesting your hidden talents and soul purpose. As you activate, build and integrate your Lightbody, you reorganize your molecular structure, allowing your body to be less dense and more free to express itself with the source of the universe.” - Crystallinks
 
THIS CURRENT MERKABA UPGRADE includes and involves…
 
DISMANTLING OF OLD
 
Note the resurface of the old - body "stuff", injuries, thoughts, issues, emotions, misunderstandings, but especially right now in the BODY – 
it is full of sensation – in your body - to a level that could induce fear.
 
If you have this going on, know it is for a soul purpose
Breathe through it
It can help to repeat out loud, “you are ok, you are ok” 
and really relax into whatever is presenting in your body 
 
SORTING 
 
sifting and sorting through the "sands of time"
keep the crystalline new
return the old to the earth for alchemical restructuring
all is resource
light and dark, pleasure and pain, we honor it all
this section will have a “I have been stripped for parts and laid out on the garage floor” feeling to your body vehicle.  All a part of the upgrade!


UPGRADE TO A NEW VEHICLE
 
YOU are the designer, the builder, the creator and destroyer of your light body vehicle.
Chose parts wisely
Hold a clear vision for the vehicle of your dreams
Your highest expression of LIGHT BODY
Use colors, shapes, sounds, textures
 
MER – KA – BA
Unified Soul Expression of
 
Body
Light
Spirit/Energy/Life-force

When two human beings, human souls make a connection, they share codes with each other.  They spark and ignite each other to discover and uncover new things.
Same thing happens with sky objects, celestial bodies. When they are near to each other in the sky, there is a way they code share.  I found there is an astronomical term for this "code exchange", when two bodies are near each other - but not quite at conjunction, which is an exact technical alignment- it is called an APPULSE.
We have many sky celestial appulse moments happing this year!
I am in the process of updating them on the Inner Space website now.
May will be posted soon. Lots of exciting code exchanges afoot!

"An appulse is when two or more astronomical objects – usually the planets or the Moon – appear close to one another in the sky." - In The Sky

Definition of appulse
1 : a driving or running toward something (such as a place) : act of striking against something (such as a point)
2 : the apparent very near approach of one celestial body to another : a coming into conjunction
 
other words for appluse (from thersaurus.com)
bang, bump. bounce, contact, encounter, meeting, pound, knock, jolt, wallop, smashup, rock, stoke, strike, quake, kick, shake, hit

"Since the Moon moves relatively quickly across the sky, making a complete circuit through the constellations every month, most appulses occur when the Moon passes another body. These tend to recur on a monthly basis, as the Moon passes the same planets at a similar point in its cycle of phases each month." - In The Sky

We have a powerful sky alignment and dance of the Sun, Venus, the Moon, and including Mercury and Uranus too. The Sun, on its ecliptic path in our sky, slid along the sky to the tail of Cetus beginning around the new moon on March 14.  The Sun and Venus traveled together, getting closer and closer to each other until they met up on March 26, in conjunction, right above the tail of Cetus in the sky!
​This auspicious sky alignment opened what I am informally calling the "Whale Window".

As Venus emerged from the sun's glare in the beginning days of April, Mercury came sliding in along the tail.  On April 11, the new moon joined the Cetus party. Mercury conjuncts the Sun on April 19, as the planet party nears the head of the whale.  ​​Here is where we bring in the coding and note the placement of Cetus A. (see previous blog post for more info).  

Friday April 23, Venus, Uranus and Mercury move close together over the head of Cetus.  
Then they make some cool weekend geometries as they code and dance around one another in the sky Saturday the 24th and Sunday the 25th.  Today (Sunday the 25th) Venus is directly under Mercury.  Anyone feeling a tug between head and heart?? This current alignment is indicative of these energies.

There is nothing to look at in the sky with this alignment window.  It is all happening quite close to the sun, and during the daytime.  This is a FEELING window.  Enjoy!

The WHALES came front and center for me again on Easter weekend.  I was celebrating at my father-in-law’s house, on the North Shore.  We had walked over to the fish market to get some for Easter dinner and were talking to the owner about lobster meat prices.  They were exorbitantly high, and we got to talking about it, and she said that lobster boats were mostly grounded now.  Only one could go out per day. As they were prohibited because of the whales.
 
Of course that piqued my interest, as whales have long been a steady shamanic presence in my world. I embarked on a renewed line of whale research, and the restrictions are to protect the endangered Right Whale. If you follow my Facebook page, I did a bunch of Right Whale posts that week, as I was researching. There are less than 400 of these whales left on earth, and the coast of new England and Canada is their spring early summer spot, after their southern migration to breeding grounds off the southern Carolina coast. They are in the Boston Harbor, and off the shores of Cape Cod this time of year, as they head North to Bay of Fundy for the summer.  The Right Whales are special to me, and I even saw one from the shore of Wellfleet last summer, and many on a whale watch years ago. The ocean researchers are so familiar with them, they have many of them named, by identifying patterns of barnacle growth on their backs, and seeing the same whales year after year.
 
Then, as it goes, I was seeing WHALE WHALE WHALE stuff everywhere!  It was like the whale song was calling to me, to re-awaken something in my soul.
 
Working as a “Galactic Shaman” – when an animal speaks to my soul like this, I often extend my research up into the stars and sky. Well, wouldn’t you know, the Sun is passing along the back of Cetus, the Whale Constellation right now!!!
 
Have you heard of Cetus?  It is not a super “popular” constellation, so you are in good company if you have not.  CETUS, the Whale, also referend to as sea monster or sea serpent, and is also known as the Dragon Fish!  Dragon Fish and Whale Constellation?? Ok, now you REALLY have my attention! ;-). One of the known Right Whales off our coast here is even named Dragon! Sadly, she is entangled in fishing gear and in poor health (see source article below for more).

Another thing of note in this constellation is Cetus A/Messier 77.  A barred spiral galaxy, like our Milky Way.  Of major “note” Cetus A has an active galactic nucleus (AGN), and is a strong source of radio emissions. Not all galaxies do this, so this one is “broadcasting”.  A galaxy that is “turned on” and broadcasting from its center, emits a huge jet that travel deep and far into intergalactic space.  If we (earth) are facing this jet, we are on the receiving end of the signal, and then these AGN are called radio galaxies, quasars or blazars.
 
There is a strong link here, the emitting active galaxies and the whale song.  Even portrayed and coded for us in the Star Trek movie, The Voyage Home.
Maybe the whales, in addition to all they do for us here on earth, are singing and communicating with distant galaxies.  
 
Whales awaken for us our own ability to “sing our soul song”.  The broadcast our signals HOME – to our star systems of origin.
 
Thank you whales, we LOVE you so!!!!

I had the great pleasure of studying deeply and dancing in shamanic ceremony with Brooke Medicine Eagle in person, on many fabulous occasions during my "formative years" in 1999-2004. Both on the land here in New England (Massachusetts and Vermont) and on her home land of Montana.
​
Working with reverence and honor, for the Earth, and for all creatures living on it, with all the elements and Walking the Path of Beauty. Shamanic Journeys, Vision Quests, and deep felt inner explorations with her included the first time I heard about THE RAINBOW BRIDGE. I was working and studying with her extensively when she published her second book, and as
I renew my own Inner Creation and work this week building and re-building a re-newed level of myself as THE RAINBOW BRIDGE, I recall, re-read and share with you this excerpt from her book....

"The Rainbow Bridge to a Renewed Earth
(from The Last Ghost Dance: A Guide for Earth Mages by Brooke Medicine Eagle)
All of us alive on Lady Gaia at this time have the opportunity to be an active part of the Rainbow of Light that creates the bridge into a new and Golden Time for All Our Relations and us. At this point in human history, we have the opportunity to literally bring Heaven to Earth. Our ability to visualize and believe that it is possible for us to lift ourselves up, to pick up the profound work of our Earthly ancestors and move responsibly into our own piece of the action, and to fully embody Spirit is what will make this ascension possible. The exciting part is that we have the opportunity to complete something Mother Earth and humanity have been working on for aeons.
The Rainbow Bridge to a renewed Earth was first shown to me in a vision given me by White Buffalo Calf Pipe Woman, the mysterious holy woman who came many generations ago to a small group of Lakota people, bringing the Sacred Pipe that represents the Oneness and holiness of the Circle of Life. She, whose name is often shortened to White Buffalo Woman, has been an inner guide and teacher to me and to many others of this generation, as her wisdom invites us to walk in a sacred manner on Earth, honoring All Things, not only as our family, but literally as part of our wholeness.
This particular time, she took me to stand at the edge of an enormous chasm made of black, shiny stone and asked me to look around. Looking across the gap, I saw a sight that thrilled my heart. On the other side was a radiantly golden world. Everything had an iridescent aura, like we sometimes see on a spring morning after rain when the dew picks up the many-colored light. There were people and animals there on a broad, flowering plain under crystal snowcapped peaks—with no sound but a soft breeze and happy laughter. Out of the sacred groves of enormous trees on the hillsides came rushing pure, clear water. Children and young animals played there together, splashing and laughing and drinking the water without fear. Two-leggeds went about peacefully and joyfully, developing and exchanging their gifts and talents, taking in the radiant energy for nourishment and nibbling for their sweet taste the fruits and plants that grew about them in profusion. Happy songs of birds and people and the calls of contented animals echoed across. It was a glorious place—a golden dream for us and All Our Relations. I yearned to go there.
Then I turned to look behind me and was aghast at what I saw. There was smog on the horizon and acridness in the air, which I could see was harming all the living things upon which it settled, for everything had a dull, gray hue. There was arguing and fighting and warring, repression and prejudice, with everyone grasping what they could for themselves while snarling at others. Noise—screeching and pounding and roaring—filled the air. The scream of chain saws bespoke cutting the precious trees on the hills. Everything possible was being eaten, which made the people heavy yet did not nourish them. The lost, homeless, dispossessed, and sick lay all about, with many dying at the feet of those who hurried past. People wandered about, seeming alone and frightened even among their own kind. The deep hunger and need and grief of all filled the air.
I wanted desperately to get to the radiant life on the other side of the chasm. Yet as I leaned cautiously to peer over the edge, I could not see the bottom: the dark, slick rock dropped out of sight in the mist on both sides. The gap was much too wide to jump, and I had no other means to cross. A wailing cry erupted from my throat as I realized I could not get there.
All the while, White Buffalo Woman had stood beside me. Now she looked at me with compassion and said,
"The bridge upon which you will cross into that beautiful life on a renewed and flowering Earth will be a bridge of light." Then she sent from within herself a rainbow of light that jumped across the chasm to rest on the other side. "To make a bridge, the light must become a rainbow. It is the only way!"
I looked at her, still in desperation, because I did not know how to make a rainbow.
"To make a rainbow, all colors of light must be included. None can be left out, or there will be no bridge." And she went on to help me understand the deeper meaning of this symbol she had given me: "When I say 'all colors,' I am referring to all things, all peoples, all beings. None can be left out. You must walk a sacred walk, acknowledging, honoring, respecting, communing, and cooperating with all things and beings in the Circle of Life. No one, nothing, can be left behind. You must live a life of inclusiveness, union, and sharing—letting the Light of Love flow freely among you. When all are included in a good way, the discordant song will become harmony and the light will automatically become a rainbow. Thus, all of you who are alive become the rainbow Upon which the generations cross into this new and Golden Time.
The rainbow also represents another aspect of our movement into this new time: lightening up! It reminds you that you will find joy and happiness by creating them through singing, dancing, and celebrating together in gratefulness for the beauty Creator has given. You must release your heaviness and those things that burden you— lifting your attitude, practice, and vibration to a higher level. You must let what you love and what brings joy call you forward from moment to moment, for in no way can you bring this radiant time by doing things that displease or deenergize you. Rather than working for it, you must dance your lives as the old ones did. Nurturing ceremony and joyful celebration will be not only the hallmarks but also the means into this wonderful future."
This vision, which affected me so poignantly then, still calls to me deeply. That iridescent scene of a renewed Earth beckons me every day of my life. I seek to unroll that dream before me as I walk, as one would lay out a beautiful carpet. Having stepped forward, I realize that the polluted scene lives within me as well as outside of me, and that, for me, awakening the dream into reality means cleansing myself of the attitudes, beliefs, and actions that comprise it, in order that I may invite others to do the same.
I also realize that the beautiful, iridescent place already exists on a certain plane of reality. It is the gift Creator has offered us from the beginning of time, if we will only cleanse the smog from our eyes and choose that sacred path.
Now, another vision has joined this one—a vision of another Rainbow, half of which has already been created and sent forth. During the time of European expansion and aggressive conquering of the Americas, Father Spirit sent a Messianic vision of this radiant land on "the other side" to a succession of tribal people, the most famous of whom was a Paiute named Wovoka, who shared it with the natives far and wide. They were shown a radiant life similar to that which White Buffalo Woman opened before me. Their visions came over a four-hundred-year period when subjugation, decimation, and finally genocide were taking place among American native peoples. The white man's greed for land and wealth was laying waste to the native tribes. Their lives were shattered, their homelands ravaged, the buffalo slaughtered and rotting in the sun, their families murdered, their dreams broken.
These radiant visions, and the Christ figure known as Dawn Star who brought them, gave the ravaged people renewed hope, offering them a way to re-create an even more beautiful life. Through the Spirit Dance they had been given, they would bring to life their golden dream. Their murdered relatives would walk again on green and flowering land; all that was destroyed would be made whole. It was to be a new world in which Earth and spirit are as one. So in the latter days, they made the shirts shown in Wovoka's vision, using what little leather was left or flour sacks from the meager rations given them on the new reservations; and they circled in the entrancing dance that was shown them. They called upon their loved ones, so many hundreds now on the side of Spirit, to lift them up into this radiant dream. They danced that golden dream into the ground, set it into the reality of the Earth plane, made their half of the Rainbow. Then even that dream was shattered. At Wounded Knee, innocent, peaceful people of the Ghost Dance were murdered by the cavalry because the fearful white nation did not see the peaceful, beautiful dream that could unfold from it.
Those dancers lifted into Spirit, to hold their half of the Rainbow until we of the present human generation could awaken and dance the other half into the ground of reality in this world. The vision White Buffalo Calf Pipe Woman gave me is the same vision; it has been given into the hearts and minds of many of this generation—it is alive and well. The Ancient Ones and native peoples have known and held these powerful dreams down through time. Although they seem to fade with our attention on other things, a fine, strong thread connects us to them. Our present task is to draw their essence forth and to weave a web of beauty upon which to dance our lives."
